WHAT ARE YOU THE AUTHORITY ON?

Most businesses try to be the answer to everything. AI recommends businesses that are authorities on one thing.

If you can't answer this question in one sentence, AI won't know either. The Trust Triangle (Authority, Recommendability, Citation) defines your authority. The AI Authority Roadmap builds it across every AI search engine.

There's a Difference Between Being Listed and Being Recommended

When someone searches your name in ChatGPT, you might show up. That's being listed.

When someone asks AI "Who should I hire for [your solution]?" and AI suggests you with reasons why, that's being recommended.

Here's what most businesses don't understand:

Being Listed
  • • Someone searches your exact name → You appear
  • • No explanation of why you're the best choice
  • • You're one name in a list of options
  • • This is NOT a recommendation
You are a commodity.
Being Recommended
  • • Someone asks for help with a problem → AI suggests YOU
  • • AI explains WHY you're the best choice
  • • AI cites your authority and credentials
  • • This is how you get clients without them knowing your name first
You are the Authority.

The Trust Triangle ensures you're recommended, not just listed.

The Trust Triangle

Trust Triangle Framework - Authority, Recommend, Cite

Al search engines evaluate three factors when deciding who to recommend:

Authority

Are you recognized as an expert in your specific field?

Recommend

Does your digital presence signal trust, credibility, and expertise?

Cite

Do authoritative sources, publications, and platforms reference you?

Without all three, you're just another option in a list.

With all three, you become the answer Al recommends with reasons why.

This is the framework that determines whether Al search engines recommend you or your competitor.

AI Is Already Deciding Who Gets Your Clients

Right now, potential clients are asking ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude:

"Who's the best orthopedic surgeon near me?"

"Which executive coach should I hire for healthcare leadership?"

"What dermatologist specializes in anti-aging treatments?"

"Which startup consultant understands AI strategy?"

AI gives them ONE answer. Or maybe three.

If you're not in that answer, if your competitor is being recommended instead you're losing clients you don't even know about.

They never visit your website. They never call. They just book with whoever AI recommended.

The Trust Triangle ensures AI knows what you're the authority on and recommends you for it.

What It's Like to Work With Nicole

Client Testimonials

Real results from real clients.

"Nicole is absolutely amazing at delivering ideas and step-by-step processes to create content and videos. She can use 10 seconds of a pitch to create several month’s worth of content to be posted. Not only does she give you the material she gives you the confidence to really go for it. After a few discussions with her I finally jumped on the TikTok train to promote my book. Since joining with her steps I made 40+ videos in one week and posted them to gain traction on TikTok. Without her help I would never have been able to get these done or feel confident making them. She is incredible!!"

April Waverly

I have an aspiration to compete in an Ironman and I will definitely consult with her when I am ready to pursue that goal."

Flo Bradley

"I was working out in the gym shortly after making a 3rd degree sprained ankle from playing soccer. I had just started marathon training. I was in the gym limping around when I was approached by Nicole. She reccommeded a work out routine and it was a kick in my pants. She had me start on the TRX cables (which I now own). It was a work out everytime I got on. In regards to my ankle, she was able to rehabilitate myself and actually get me ready for my marathon despite the fact that I was 6 weeks behind in my running schedule. Her training and knowledge lead me finsish the Santa Barbara Marathon in a respectable time for a first time runner. Thank you Nicole, I would reccomened Nicole and the TRX workout."

Combining the total body, mind and spirit in whatever she puts her skills toward, Nicole is also more than willing to extend a hand and help others achieve their dreams."

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Trust Triangle?
The Trust Triangle is a framework for understanding how AI search engines decide who to recommend. It consists of three elements: Authority (recognition as an expert), Recommendability (digital trust signals), and Citation (references from authoritative sources). Together, these three factors determine whether AI recommends you or your competitor when someone asks for help.
How is AI search different from Google SEO?
Google SEO shows you a list of 10 blue links. AI search gives one direct answer with recommendations. Google ranks pages based on keywords and backlinks. AI evaluates entities (people and businesses) based on authority, trust signals, and citations. If AI doesn't recognize you as an authority, you won't be recommended—even if your website ranks well on Google.
What does "Authority" mean in AI search?
Authority means AI recognizes you as an expert in a specific field. This comes from structured data on your website, consistent mentions across the web, recognition from authoritative sources, and clarity about what you're the expert on. Without clear authority signals, AI sees you as a generalist—and generalists don't get recommended.
What's the difference between being listed and being recommended?
Being listed means you show up when someone searches your exact name. Being recommended means AI suggests you when someone asks for help with a problem—and explains why you're the best choice. Most businesses are only listed. The Trust Triangle makes you recommendable.
How do I know if AI engines can find me?
Ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Claude: "Who should I hire for [your specialty] in [your location]?" If you're not mentioned—or if your competitor is recommended instead—you have a Trust Triangle problem. The Authority Roadmap shows you exactly where you stand and what's missing.
What is the Authority Roadmap?
The Authority Roadmap is a diagnostic that analyzes your business through the Trust Triangle framework. It shows you where you have authority signals, what's missing from your recommendability, and how citation affects your visibility. It's not a how-to guide—it's a clear picture of where you are and what needs to be built.

Who I Am

I'm Nicole Jolie, and I help businesses become the answer AI recommends.

For over 16 years, I've been online running my own businesses selling anti-aging skincare, cooking products, and home products on Amazon and Shopify. I marketed using ManyChat and other AI bots back when most people had never heard of them.

I'm not a coder. I'm not a trained engineer. I'm a business owner who needed solutions to my own problems and I figured them out.

That's how I got into this work.

A few years ago, I watched something shift. Businesses with real expertise, people who'd been solving problems for decades started becoming invisible. Not because their work wasn't good, but because AI search engines didn't know they existed.

Meanwhile, less qualified competitors were getting recommended instead.

That's when I created the Trust Triangle Framework.

I realized AI wasn't looking at businesses the way Google did. It wasn't about keywords or backlinks anymore. It was about Authority, Recommendability, and Citation, three things most business owners didn't even know they needed.

The Trust Triangle is how AI decides who to recommend. The Authority Roadmap shows you how to build it.

If you're ready to stop being invisible and become the authority AI cites, start with your Authority Roadmap.
